But he himself went a day's journey into
the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested

my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

And he said, Go forth, and stand
upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great
and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the
LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but
the LORD was not in the earthquake:

And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped

And he said,
I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of
Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy
prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to
take it away.
Rom 11:3

And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them,
and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the
people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered
unto him.
